   MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECCRD

   SUBJECT:  Meeting on CA Matters with the Panel of the President's
             Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board


        1.  On 20 July 1962, the Director and the Deputy Director (Plans)

   met with Messrs. Robert Murphy, Gordon Gray, William Langer, and

   J. Patrick Coyne to discuss certain aspects of the Agency's Political

   Action Programs.  The Director sat with the Panel from 10:30 'til noon,

   the Deputy Director (Plans) was present from 10:30 to 12:30 and from

   2:00 to 3:30.


        2.  The Director opened the discussion with a historical description

   of the Agency's covert financial support to political parties in the

   fight against Commmnism.  He described in detail the procedures now in

   effect whereby Political Action Projects are originated, staffed out,

   and cleared with appropriate elements of Government.  He pointed out

   that each project must have his approval prior to its circulation to

   the members of the Special Group. At this point,  he digressed to inform

   the Panel that reconnaissance overflights are now approved by the

   Special Group and subsequently by the President.  He said that this

   same procedure applies to peripheral flights although to a lesser de-

   gree.  He terminated this part of the discussion by stating that in

   his opinion all covert action programs are now handled in an orderly,

   correct manner.
